WASHINGTON, January 5.--The Senate, in
secret session, has confirmed the nomina-
tons OF Thomas Moonlight to be Governor
OF Wyoming Territory, and large num-
Der OF pOstmasters.
Among the petitions and memorials pre-
sented TO the Senate to-day were a number
praying for appropriations, and in some
cases asking the definite sum Of 800 to
enable colored citizens 10 emigrate 10 Ii.
IBERIA. These petitions came from the fol-
lowing sources Colored citizens OF Lam
caster county, $. c.; Rev. A. A. Lewis, OF
Florida; colored citizens OF Whitfield
county, Ga: Buncombe county, n. c.,
GraysOn and other counties In Texas, Man.
haitian, KS, and one general petition OF
citizens OF African descent"
The President received a number OF OF
fetal visitors this morning, including At
tOrney-General Garland and Senator Col
quit, and held q short public reception In
the East room in the afternoon. His right
knee is still stiff, and causes slight limp in
his walk, but otherwise his health is re-
ported to be good.
The President has so far failed to nomi-
nate Manning as Minister to Mexico. and
the impression is almost general that this
appointment will be allowed to lapse. This
belief is strengthened by the fact that there
is but one more day in which the nominal
ton can be made, and further by an un-
official statement by the President that all
recess nominations have been sent in.

Church. Heretofore scholars were sent to
seats Of learning In Europe TO At them
for these posts, but many Of them
came back tainted With German Radical
ism and inidelIiy. ane some OF these have
been admitted 10 the pulpits OF the church.
The indifference Of the Jewish youth 10 the
religion OF their fathers Is due largely to
tbe fact that the lights Of Judaism have not
been placed before them. and this shall be
corrected by training up o class Of men
who will teach the history OF the Bible
without prejudice, and show for the gut
dance OF the rising generation the virtues
and greatness OF their Jewish ancestry, and
teach them also their errors, that they may
avoid them"
The classes will open to-day with eight
members, aud others will be admitted as
fat as the applicants qualify. These have
passed the examinations: William Kurtz,
Edward Hertz, Israel Cohb. Joseph Hertz,
Bymen Simpson, II. Rubenstein, Sol. Bern
stein, and Samuel sciuinger.
The fun course Of study will cover eight
years, but pupils will be advanced as rapid.

selected from the Advisory Board OF Min

A Charitable Dog.

The indianapolis Jo,Tnd! tells this in.
teiestiDg dog-story: Out on the edge OF
the gutter, near the Blind asylum, the pup
discovered an old pointer, and with the
natural curiosity Of his kind, started out
to make the acquaintance OF his fellow
canine. An inspection developed the fact
that in addition to the natural infrmities
incident to his advanced years, the dog had
bern totally disabled by some malicious
scamp, who had shot him IN the face
with a load Of small shot, destroying
the sight OF both eyes. Now here
s where the Haugh makes his record.
He says that the puppy, having satisfied
himself OF the condition OF the old dog.
adopted all sorts OF ruses to get him to stand
UP, barking and coaxing in every way
Imaginable, his efforts being finally re-
warded by success. In the same way he
led the blind dog TO Mr.. laughs home, on
Pratt street, got him back into the shed.
and made up good bed with straw and
old carpet, INTO which he carefully piloted
him. Every time the puppy has been led
since he has taken his meal to his Invalid
ccmpanioD, devoting as much care and
attention to him as one human being would
10 another.

from twelve TO eighteen months. The Judge
who delivered the sentences censured the
inspectors Of police and local magistrates

no Chief secretary for Ireland, no Under

The startling evidence Of the Duke OF

everywhere, and he himself is said TO be
In despair over being mixed up with this

that, II he mad not been involved iu new
scandal, he would have renewed the at
tempts he made tentatively some time ago,
to enter on the discharge Of those political
duties for which, II he has not all the mo-
rality, he has certainly the ability. This

him from polcal employment.
